HOPEWELL, Va. (AP) — A woman killed in a shooting Thanksgiving night in Hopewell was a firefighter in Richmond.
The Richmond Fire Department on Friday identified the woman as 33-year-old Ashley Nicole Berry. The Chesterfield resident was a lieutenant with the department, where she had worked since 2011.
The Richmond Times-Dispatch reports police and emergency personnel found Berry with serious gunshot wounds around 11:40 p.m. Thursday after receiving a report that someone had been shot. She died at a hospital.
Police are asking that anyone with information contact authorities. They say a silver or gold sport utility vehicle quickly left the area after the shooting.
Berry had been recently assigned to the fire marshal’s office.
